“I had to trap you,”“Yeah and now I don’t fit in any of my clothes,”She lamented.“That’s why you have mine. Plus, your mom was super proud of me,”“Why won’t she? When you helped her fulfill her biggest wish. They are arriving tomorrow. My brothers are going to give you a piece of their mind,”Nathan pretended to shake in fear but he had no fear. His brother-in-laws were cool people and they treated him nicely. In fact, he recently signed a deal with her oldest brother. “They like me too much to scold me.”He reminded her. She rolled her eyes. “Are you coming with me or do you still want to be locked up here? You have been here all day,”She lamented. “I am done now. And by Monday, I will finish the last job I have to do and you will finally have me to yourself,”He assured her. “I wish. Next week is going to be very busy for us. We have the wedding rehearsals and other things. I don’t think we will have time for each other until after our wedding. I am having a bridal shower,
Nathan looked around as he walked into one of the fanciest living rooms he has ever seen, the one other time he had seen a place as fancy as this was when he had visited his high school girlfriend at home, one of his biggest mistakes, he had left there and walked home to the rundown apartment that he shared with his mom and two little sisters, the relationship had ended after that when she had asked to visit his house and he had been unable to bring her to his place, that was years ago and until now, nothing has changed in his life, well there was a change but it got worse instead of better, he lost his mom in the most brutal way and was left to care for his two younger sisters. In all his twenty-six years of living, he has never once experienced an easy life, it got worse when his mother had been killed during his final year in uni and he had to return home to care for his younger siblings, he never got to finish his final year in school and that’s how his dream of breaking out of
“Annie, you can’t do this to me, who is this man and what are you doing with him? You told me you were traveling, told me you are going to see your parents, how are you here in another man's house wearing a robe an…” Nathan said and paused as the reality of the whole situation started to dawn on him, she lied to him that she was traveling meanwhile, she was here, with another man, having a sex marathon, openly cheating on him and pretending they had nothing going on, this had to be a horrible dream, Annie would never do this to him, they love each other too much. “Honey, is he the boy you talked about? The one that thinks you are going to settle with him?” The man asked, still laughing. “The very same delusional idiot, I don’t know what gave him the idea that I was in his class, at least he got the wake-up call now, Naty baby, you and I were never a thing, and we will never be,” Annie said. Nathan concluded he was dreaming, this wasn’t real, he is going to wake up in bed with Ann
“What happened Nora, please calm down and talk to me,” Nathan said as he increased his pace his heart beating so fast fearing for the worse, the last time he had gotten a call like this was five years ago, and he had to go pick up the remains of his dear mother. he still beat himself up every day for not knowing just how much his mom had been going through and he couldn’t let anything like that happen to his sisters. “Nora,” He urged when she didn’t say anything and just kept crying. “It’s Nell, she fainted in school and was brought to the hospital and we have been trying to reach you, why didn’t you pick up Nat?” She cried and Nathan felt guilt eating at him, while his little sister had been fighting for her life, he had been humiliating himself because of a woman, he felt so ashamed. “I am so sorry Nora, I had my phone in my pocket and didn’t know you called, where are you? Where is Nelly?’ Nathan asked as he started walking faster, he had to take a bus or a cab now if he was
Nathan turned around and saw his worse nightmare standing in front of his car, as always, he had men with him, Trent, the service boy of Dylan Russell, the man who is mom had borrowed money from, the same person who had worked her to death, his hand coiled into a fist as he walked towards Trent, not like he could avoid him, one would think after his mom died after being brutalize by them, they would leave him and his sisters be but that wasn’t the case, when he had gone to get his mom’s remains five years ago, Dylan had looked him in the face and told him he had to pay back what she still owe him, at first, Nathan had thought he was joking, not until the month after he buried his mom, Trent had showed up at there house threatening to take his sister if he doesn’t pay up, he had asked the amount she owed and they had mentioned an impossible sum, he gave them the money with him that time and five years later, he was still paying them every month, and it didn’t look like the debt was end
Nathan opened his eyes and felt the most-crazy headache hit him, he closed his eyes just as soon as he opened them, his whole body was in pain and it was like he was trapped in a world of pain, he tried to remember what happened and how he got to the bed he was currently laying on, the last thing he remembered was that he was going to get his money from that manager. “Fucking hell,” Nathan yelled as he jumped up, he looked around and realized he was in a hospital room, he reached out for his phone which was on the table next to him, and checked the time. “Oh no,” he cried as he got off the bed, how did he end up in a hospital, he didn’t have money for more bills, and his sister was waiting for him. “Hell,” he said as he got into his jacket ignoring the pain he was feeling. “You are awake,” A voice came from the entrance and he turned around expecting to see a doctor or a nurse but the woman that stood before him was no doctor, no, he knew who she was but how she got here was bey
”So what is it that you want me to do?” Nathan asked as he lay in his hospital bed, Gianni was in the room with him, He knew he should probably apologize for what he had said to her earlier since it was clear he had misjudged her but his pride didn’t let him, he still didn’t know what she wanted him to do and now that she has helped him so much, he might not be able to tell her no, not like he wanted to, where would he have gotten such money if she had not shown up. “Let’s see, how about we start with you apologizing for what you said earlier, it was insulting to assume I wanted to pay you for sex, that’s not something anyone wants to be known for,” She said, if only she has met his ex, he couldn’t believe Annie was an ex now, it still felt like he dreamt the whole thing. “I am sorry for what I said, I shouldn’t have jumped to a conclusion without first hearing from you, please can you tell me now what it is you want me to do,” He apologized and requested. “Sure, as I said earli
Nathan woke up the next morning and for the first time in a long time, he had the will to live and was in a bright mood, yesterday happened and it all still seem like a dream to him but he woke up in a VIP room in a big hospital that he would not have been able to afford on a norm on his own, that was enough proof that this wasn’t a dream and that he had a job that will seal his and his sister’s fate for life, his sisters would not need to witness a harsh life anymore and he would not have to work hard jobs to feed them anymore. his joy was kind of bittersweet, especially when he thought about his late mom, if only she was still here, his joy would have been complete, they took her away from him and now that he didn’t have to work tirelessly to survive, he would do his best to succeed and make those that killed his mom pay. He didn’t like the fact that he has to pretend to be someone else but if that means he didn’t have to suffer anymore, then so be it, maybe this was the universe's
